XVII Festival nitratnog filma (PDF) (in Serbian), Yugoslav Film Archive, 2015, p.21 , retrieved 19 November 2016 Stephen Hunt's The Court of the Air features airships as the main fighting force of one nation, the sole power with access to the Unobtainium necessary to keep them afloat. Better yet, the eponymous Court of the Air is a secret, ultra-elite, badass organization of magic-wielding One-Man Army types. And their base is a floating fortress that is not only higher into the atmosphere than any airships other than their own can reach, but remains anchored there permanently.

If you own an armed aircraft in Grand Theft Auto V, you pretty much become one of these by default. Numerous missions involve using your own aircraft, or one you've stolen, to destroy or loot other vehicles. Standout examples include "The Merryweather Heist", "Minor Turbulence", and the "Smuggler's Run" DLC. Self-described author of "far-fetched fiction" Robert Rankin has incorporated elements of steampunk into narrative worlds that are both Victorian and re-imagined contemporary.

P 513 - Steampunk Final Fantasy XII, especially Revenant Wings, features them. Balthier and Fran start as them, and it's Vaan's dream to become one in the original game. It's also Balthier's class when he cameos in the rerelease of Final Fantasy Tactics, but Ramza laughs at him when he identifies himself as one, since airships are a thing of the past by that point. This is also a Vaan-only Job Class in Final Fantasy Tactics A2. Sundered Skies is set in a World in the Sky, so there is little choice but to travel by airship; so there is obviously the odd pirate.
Older Than Radio: Jules Verne's Robur the Conqueror, with his huge mega-helicopter vehicle, is the Ur-Example. History is often distorted, and it’s hard to verify the accuracy of Steampunk culture, but a couple of things are true for sure. First, Steampunks know how to appreciate the past. Whether it’s an accurate representation or a playful representation, these Steampunks understand the value of the past. Khave, Khurt (22 October 2014). Chainsaw Alice in Wonderland. CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform. ISBN 978-1502546777. For instance, think of how steampunk artists often slap a zeppelin on the traditional pirate wooden ship instead of giving them, say, an airplane. This is likely because airplanes never even existed in the early steampunk days, so the artists had to be creative. Alternate History Fantasy The German pulp magazine The Air Pirate and His Steerable Airship from 1908 to 1911, followed the adventures of Captain Mors, the "Air pirate".

a b c d e f g h i John Clute& John Grant, The Encyclopedia of Fantasy, "Steampunk", p.895 1st Ed., (1997), Orbit, ISBN 1-85723-897-4 Cross Epoch, the official One Piece/ Dragon Ball Z crossover one-shot manga, had several sky pirate factions. One led by Vegeta (along with Robin, Trunks, and Usopp), one led by Buggy and Emperor Pilaf (in a ship with an intimidating facade made out of papier mache), and one led by Dr. Gero (only alluded to). The Gullwings in Final Fantasy X-2 are never referred to as such, but they're globe-trotting treasure hunters aboard an airship, all the same. LeRoi is a sky pirate who is flamboyant and demands that he be proclaimed master of the city, or else he will burn it to the ground. [27] He leaps out the window before he can be arrested, and Tolliver insists that the fair proceed. An episode of Max Steel involved a young inventor who built a gigantic aircraft that literally swallowed planes. When the titular character's Voice with an Internet Connection is captured by the crew, the first thing he does is give a long list of scientific reasons why such a thing cannot possibly exist.
